    Yes this seems like a perfectly safe and non-abusable solution.

    Some of the "solutions" on this thread are genuinely laughable and it's good that you aren't in game design.

    Ban people or restricting their chat when they black listed by a certain number of players? Lol. I know an entire FC of people on my server that hate me because I named & shamed them as Triple Triad tournament cheaters on the forums. Really think the same kind of people wouldn't abuse these kind of systems? Any kind of system that let's an organized group of players cause mutes/bans on people they don't like is an awful idea. Players have shown time and time again that they cannot be trusted with any system that can be abused easily.

    The suggestion by Dillia is just amazing /s. Let's not only promote RMT - by literally encouraging players to buy from the websites, but also cannibalize our own business model, all to ban one account! Freakin' genius. I wonder why no game has ever done that before, there's absolutely no way it can backfire.

    Taking on the websites - lawyers aren't cheap. These websites also tend to have many websites run by the same group under different names. You take one down, they make another.

    One of the few good ideas is to add an option to only allow friends to whisper you. I've been after that for a while.

    It's really amusing that people on this thread seem to think SE do literally nothing to combat RMT. You really think that? You do know why they're so quiet when it comes to fighting botters/rmt right? Because it's fucking stupid for a dev to publicly post about what they are doing to fight it. It makes it even easier to RMT to avoid being caught. Every MMO I've ever player has issues with these kind of issues. If you think SE are gonna come out over night with an efficient and permanent solution I'm afraid you're very, very wrong.

    Other games have literally changed the entire back-end of how a game works, and you know what happened? The bots were broken. For a week or two. Then they fixed the bots to work on the 'new' version of the game and they were back in action. It is not a 1-2-Fix.

    And btw, PSA: Characters aren't deleted when an account is banned. Just because the RMT you blist aren't becoming (deleted)s doesn't mean the accounts aren't being banned. Characters just get deleted after a while in order to free up space to create a new character that isn't blisted by as many people.
